[QUOTE="Rafter S, post: 1772284, member: 21194"] I've eaten coon a time or two, but it was over 40 years ago. I seem to remember that it was okay, but didn't leave me wanting more. I can believe that. Back around 1980, when there was a big demand for varying kinds of animal hides, the local buyer would pay $3.00 for a possum hide or $1.50 for the whole possum. I helped clean exactly one. Even in 1980 it didn't take me long to decide it wasn't worth $1.50 to clean one as bad as they stink. I used to work with a guy who'd bring chittlins to work for his lunch, and heat them up on a hot plate. I'd have to leave the break room and eat my lunch in the wood shop. I guess the most unusual meat I ever ate was about 25 years ago when my boss, who was raised in Louisiana, invited me over to his house after work on Friday. He had some relatives visiting, and they were barbecuing. As I was drinking beer and telling lies with them one of them handed me a chunk of meat and asked me to try it. I did. It tasted okay, but the texture was a little different. He asked me if I knew what it was. I didn't. He told me it was nutria. I said okay, can I have some more? [/QUOTE]
